A group show of plein air landscape paintings featuring Utah National Parks will be on display for a couple of weeks at the Syracuse Community Art Center. The paintings are the result of participation in workshops with artist Roland Lee this summer in the Zion, Mt. Carmel, and Bryce Canyon areas. Although the objective of the show is to spotlight plein air works completed outdoors, some will be studio pieces created from studies and sketches completed on location. The workshops and art exhibit are sponsored by the Syracuse Guild for the Visual Arts.

An opening reception will be held from 6 to 8pm September 15 at the Syracuse Community Center, 1912 West 1900 South, Syracuse, UT.
